The statistical tables presented are arranged by eight geographic regions: Established Market Economies; formerly socialist economies of Europe; India; China; other Asia and islands; Middle Eastern Crescent (which includes North Africa, the Middle East, Pakistan, and Central Asian republics of the former Soviet Union), and sub-Saharan Africa. |
